GAZZUZZ:


front suspension for that vehicle.

Diagnosis first.

Upper strut mount
Lower control arms
Swaybar link/ bushings
Engine mounts
Ball joints struts
Steering rack
Tie/rod ends.

Any of these could cause suspension noises. You need a good listening ear/feel/strip suspension parts before you can find the culprit/culprits
alright sir.
my mech will check it in the morning.
How much is the shocks.

Good morning Gazzuzz, Great work you are doing here.
My camry 2000 idle speed gets very low when the ac is on and gear is engaged. I got it scanned and it came up with P0136 and P0128.
My mechanic checked for the catalyst and there isn't any, also thermostat was removed over 5years ago.
My question now is why is the idle speed now so low if it has been working fine all these years?

the IACV (Google it) of your throttle body is stuck, a few flashes of carb cleaner and it will be as good ad new.

If in lag, bring it in for a free fix (idle only)

Does engine rattle? Open the valve cover is it filled with sludge? What is the true mileage of the vehicle (Carguide)

Hi gazzuzz.

Please what is the recommended engine oil for the 2015 Hyundai Sonata?

try 0w40 if no oil burns and no oil shortage, then next service you can do 5w30 if not stick with 20w50.

I sell here. anad srotom is know for using mineral oil accross board that is why I initially recommended mineral oil too.

I use a 2012 IX35 and I use 5w20 and it never shorts oil.

You can get oil here

Hi Gazzuzz, we spoke yesterday mrn...thxs for returning my call.

So i decided to take d bull by d horn n dropped entire exhaust system for thorough inspection. Las las culprit confirmed to b exhaust flex pipe leaking. As advised, i opted for a replacement section rather than weld. So glad CEL is off and Eco mode activating again.
